Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I am requesting pens, dry erase markers, erasers, command hooks and Velcro strips to enhance our small groups on a daily basis. Students will be able to work on hands-on SEL activities during the school day and during our One World club. We will use these materials to help us display our work throughout the school year. This will help students feel proud of the hard work they put in. I can't wait to see the look on their faces when they see their work displayed in the hallway.

This will be SEL work, literacy, mathematics instruction work, holidays around the world, socialization and more!
